Novel

pedagogy developed at ERC:

Education to empower learners with a profile for

success in life

(

school/university and workplace)

In both student & teacher education:  Big picture within and across disciplines: Depth breadth balance /

Less is more

in Episteme  Critical Habits of Mind: Skills & Dispositions  Concentrate on Patterns & representative Systems  Cross-disciplinary epistemic & cognitive taxonomy

In both student & teacher education:  Preparation for lifelong education  Mediated, experiential learning  Authentic assessment

for

meaningful learning, not assessment

of

rote learning

System: Bohr’s model of the atom Benchmarks

Learning Outcomes Scope Structure

Domain Hydrogen atom and hydrogen-like (or hydrogenic) ions. Function Composition Internal Structure External Structure Description and explanation of certain, but not other, aspects of a single electron bound on a circular orbit.

A nucleus with one (hydrogen) proton or more (hydrogenic ions), and a single electron. Properties of interest include mass and charge of these entities, and state properties of the electron (e.g. velocity). Interaction between the nucleus and the electron partially represented by a central (binding) Coulomb force exerted by the proton(s) in the nucleus on the electron.

Interaction between the atom in question and other neighboring atoms (molecular structure), or other types of environment (e.g., electromagnetic field).

Habits of Mind Skills / processes: Dispositions:  Analysis  Affects  Criterial reasoning  Attitudes  Relational reasoning  Morals  Critical reasoning  Ethics  Logical reasoning  Values  Communication dexterity  Beliefs  Technological dexterity

Scope P Scope E Scope A Scope F

Engagement:  Core-engagement

Within fields of study

 Eco-engagement

With others & environment, at school & outside

 Meta-engagement

Self-management & learning how to learn

1. Initiation / Early awareness: Know that a system (physical or conceptual) exists, but know nothing about it, and cannot use it 2. Gestation / Recognition: Partially know the scope and structure of the system, and use it in limited, familiar situations (

individual HoM’s

) 3. Replication / Comprehension: Know the scope and structure of the system, and use it in familiar or similar situations (

HoM & Engagement

) 4. Innovation / Understanding: Know the scope and structure of the system, and creatively use it in novel situations

International Arab Baccalaureate:  School-based program, Grades 10-12 / K-12  Deployed with existing curricula for enrichment & to bring harmony within diversity   Monitoring individual students’ profile history Relief from exit exams’ nightmare  Capacity building of teachers  Partnership / Ownership spirit

More than an item bank:  Robust but user-friendly, flexible engine & content  Uniformity of design & deployment of items and assessments  Various forms and types of assessment    On-line, on-demand, on-paper Continuous monitoring & processing of all data Respects ITC standards and others’

IAB 2010 Pilot:  Teachers at participating schools change practice  5 students ranked, for the first time, in one’s school history, among top 10 on national exams  Correlation between IAB and national exit exams:   Between .60 and .80 in individual fields .63 on cumulative scores in all fields

Continuous Professional Development programs:  Aligned with international standards of teacher education:   NCATE, TEAC, NBPTS, INTASC… EQF, QAA, TDA, Wales, Queensland, NAQAAE…  Blended courses, online & face-to-face, culminating in joint certificates and diplomas  Other platforms: PLC, action-research…
